The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 530

The clock had just struck nine when Darin’s phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen and picked up right away.

“Dad?”

“Darin, are you awake?”

“Yeah, I’ve been up for a while.”

“Good. Why don’t you come over a bit earlier today?”

“Sure.”

He ended the call and let out a deep breath. Standing in front of the villa’s main gate, he felt a strange wave of nerves. It was funny. He had handled tough business deals with total calm, but right now, he could barely steady himself.

After another thirty minutes of pacing and second-guessing, he finally started the car and pulled up to the entrance. The security guard had already gotten the memo from Colton, so he waved Darin through.

As he drove in, an Audi slowly approached from the other direction. Darin recognized the man behind the wheel immediately. It was Greg.

Greg saw him too. There was o surprise; he just gave Darin a brief nod. Their eyes met for a second, then Greg drove out of the estate, leaving Darin to his thoughts.

He didn’t linger on it and made his way to the Ross family villa. After parking, he grabbed the gifts he’d brought and walked up to the door, ringing the bell.

Colton answered a few minutes later.

“Dad.”

“Darin, you made it! Come in, come in. That’s lots of gifts. Give me some of that, I’ll help.”

Colton ushered him inside, taking a few bags from his hands. Darin followed him in, setting the gifts down on a cabinet. He still felt a little out of place.

Just then, Ava came down the stairs, holding Sean in her arms.

Darin stood there, watching her, trying his best to look respectful.

Ava studied him. It was her first time meeting Colton’s son. He looked a little like Colton did when he was younger. If she hadn’t known he was Andrea’s brother, she might have found his gentle manners and calm presence pretty impressive.

“Darin, this is Ava,” Colton said.

The name caught Darin off guard for a second. Was it just a coincidence?
